Wk 3 run 1

It’s official , my body hates running in the morning. I hated every inch of this run but I did not give up. What keeps me going is that I have been here before and I know that you get days like this but they’re hugely outnumbered by positive experiences. Building strength and cardiovascular fitness takes time and should not be rushed. I have no idea why I can run at night with much more ease, it was ever thus! Shame

I have to catch a flight later or I would have run my usual 7pm . Good luck peeps

Well done for doing it. I think our bodies have an optimum time for running, I can’t do evenings ever!!!

Well done for sticking with it, no matter how hard. That's mental stamina that you're building there!! :-)
